| of Mrs J. T. Beeks. of Orlando, by Drs.
| Dickinson, Shelby, Lawrence and Killmer.

North, Lewis Wiselogel, Of Albion, Mich.
and Frederick Wiselogel, of indianapolis,
Ind, have procured suitable ten-acre lot
inside the city limits, and will put up the
building and get the plant together at once

w. II. Hancock, of Lakeland, one morn
ing not long since noticed two cows fighting
not far from his house, but did not pay
much attention to them until late in the
afternoon, when he again noticed that they
were still at the same place, and one of them
was down. Taking his son with him, he
went to investigate and found that his
finest mich cow was dead-having had her
neck broken by the other COW. Their horns
were fastened together in such manner
that they could not be loosened until the
dead cows horns were sawed off.
Mr. Dickinson, of Orlando, jumped from
a moving train at Winter Park on the
morning of July 4, no stop being made on
account of the crowd waiting to board it.
He fell head foremost into ditch. Fortu-
nately he was not hurt Trains were so
crowded with passengers on Independence
Day that no stops were made till an extra,
consisting of box and fat cars, was improvis-
ed. There was no choice, and the stately and
dlgnified citizen climbed hand over hand to
a seat on top, and as they shot away with
the dense black smoke from the locomotive
curling around the line, sitting like arrow of
crows on ridge pole, all thought of Gold
smiths lines, "Man wants but little here
below"
Among the visitors to Sanford on the
Fourth were two girls from Orlando, named
H. Stukenborg and Mamie Hutton. When

indeed, until late Friday afternoon. Infor-

day that the girls were missing, and
the police were put on the watchout for
them News of their whereabouts was as
certained but they could not be found. Sat

crossed the lake, but made dodge and re-

of the game Marshal Wheeler and Sheriff

was at the night place at the right time to
take the girls in tow. They were taken to
the city, and when the Sheriff returned he
was given charge of the prisoners. They

crippled in limb and very greatly so in
morals.
